What is going on with YouTube TV?
YouTube TV’s agreement to carry the NBCUniversal networks is about to expire. If a new agreement is not reached, YouTube TV may stop carrying your favorite NBCUniversal networks.
Why is this happening?
Television networks enter into carriage agreements with providers like YouTube TV to provide content to their customers. NBCUniversal and YouTube TV are in the process of renewing their agreement.
NBCUniversal has a strong record of completing these network carriage agreements with hundreds of distributors without interruption. NBCUniversal feels a responsibility to inform viewers that their favorite channels may be discontinued.
